A federal judge on Monday struck down the Biden Administration’s mandate that masks be worn aboard planes, trains, buses and other public transportioion, leading to immediate change in policy for air travelers and many rail customers.
A short time later, the White House said the “decision means CDC’s public transportation masking order is not in effect at this time.”Because of Monday's ruling, a Biden administration official said, "TSA will not enforce its Security Directives and Emergency Amendment requiring mask use on public transportation and transportation hubs at this time."
Several airlines, including United, Delta, American and Alaska, issued statements saying masks are now optional.The plaintiffs in the lawsuit are two women, Ana Carolina Daza and Sarah Pope, along with the Health Freedom Defense Fund, a Wyoming nonprofit that has challenged Covid vaccine and mask mandates in other parts of the country.
"The court agreed that the CDC overstepped its statutory authority when it ordered every person who enters a travel conveyance or travel hub to wear a mask," Brant Hadaway, the attorney who introduced the lawsuit, told NBC News via text.
I am vaccinated, so I will not get COVID. You know this is true because Joe Biden, a Democrat, said it on CNN!!
Can’t fix Florida 🙄🤦♂️🤬 RonDeathSantis

After unqualified Judge....
One judge just murdered thousands
It's about time!
COVID appreciates all this
Idiots - this country is being ruled by idiots - thanks to the McConnells and the Bill Barr’s who helped put these guys in judgeships ! The CDC is there to protect us from ourselves so what do we do ? Cut them off at the knees !
You mean unqualified 35 year old trump MAGA appointee who's never tried a case rules something she doesn't understand unlawful.
The mask mandate was about to expire, it is not worth appealing the decision. That said, how is it that the reporting on this case makes the impression that high school juniors know more about Administrative Law than this judge? Life-time Federal judicial terms need 2 stop.
This ruling is total BS
Yeey
May the trains stay in the yard😤😤😤😤😤‼️

CDC mask mandate for travelers struck down by federal judgeA federal judge in Florida struck down on Monday the Biden administration's mask mandate for airplanes and other public transport methods. 59 page ruling 1. “sanitation” only applies to objects, not people, calling masks a “sanitation” measure doesn’t apply. 2. The regulation was put in place without notice or comment from the public 3. It’s arbitrary and capricious and doesn’t meet the “rational basis” standard Of course, a Florida judge appointed by tfg. Undoubtedly unqualified like each of his SCOTUS appointments.
